Instead of using `libarchive` on macOS (which has a non-zero dependency tree) let's instead use `gnu-tar` because: - it has no dependencies - we're already using it on Linux I tested this locally with `ack` (which was getting reproducible bottles with system and Homebrew `libarchive`) and saw a different checksum. A quick read of the `gtar` manpage indicated that it uses a GNU tar format by default which can be made consistent with BSD and GNU tar by using `--format=ustar` with both. Once this is done, the checksums are the same. This will hopefully ease the transition to having `all:` bottles be consistent on Linux, too, which will be useful when homebrew-core is fully merged/supporting Linux.
